Also: if you want more people to play, you should probably pack your game into an .exe so people who don't have Löve can play it!
The game is really funny. Probably one of the best games i've played so far!
Overall: 4/5!
The ship combat alone is pretty fun, and while the graphics are simple the color palette is very smooth and satisfying. I don't know that the mechanic of your ship being weighed down adds much to the game.
If this weren't a Ludum Dare entry I'd recommend setting up networking for this, though. Higher-scoring players having weaker ships because of the weight of their treasure sounds like a neat balancing feature.
Come check out my game if you like!
